My role as MsMarmitelover meant that I was able to go straight to the
top: after some negotiation with the Marmite authorities, I was given
a telephone date with St.John O. Skelton, Master Blender of the
Marmarati Order or, more prosaically, Quality and Innovation Expert at
the Marmite factory in Burton On Trent. He was willing to help me but
darkly intimated that making Marmite was “dangerous and hard to
control”.
RECIPE FOR HOME MADE MARMITE:
A litre of Brewer’s yeast (top fermentation from a brewery) A little
sea salt 1 onion, diced 2 carrots, diced 1 turnip, diced 1/2
celery stick, diced
- Put a litre of brewer’s yeast with a little salt, in a bain-marie. Simmer at blood heat, 30 to 40 ºc for ten hours or overnight.
- Then simmer this mixture at 50 to 60 º c for 2 to 3 hours.
- Boil at low temperature 90ºc for half an hour. (In the factory they have a special machine for this, or you could ascend a mountain
of 10,000ft, to achieve low altitude boiling)
- Filter though coffee papers or a sieve and cheesecloth
- Let it cool for a day or so. It separates further.
- Filter again.
You then want to convert it to a paste. This is best achieved by putting it in a large flat pan and simmering. On an Aga, you can
simply leave the pan on the lid for a few hours. Keep an eye on the
mixture.
Meanwhile boil up all the vegetables until they are cooked. Strain off the liquid and incorporate into the Marmite paste.
- Let the mixture reduce into a Marmite like texture. Do not allow it to burn: “We do not want to develop caramel notes” warned St.John.
The entire process takes about ten days. This home-made Marmite
admittedly tastes different, like something German and healthy in a
tube. Lacking the specialist equipment to ‘debitter’ the yeast, it
will have beerier flavours, rather like the Guinness or XO Marmite.
It was a comfort to know that I could, in a pinch or say, a calamitous
event such a terrorist attack on the Marmite factory, DIY my own
Marmite. But realistically, I’ll probably stick to shop-bought.
Update: the main problem was the bitterness of the brewing yeast. The solution is to wash the yeast. You achieve this by putting the top
fermentation in a jar full of water. Eventually the yeast will settle
on the bottom of the jar. Pour off the water and fill the jar again
with fresh water. Do this several times to wash the yeast. Then follow
the recipe above.
